Staff Reporter

Promet Source, a Drupal migration partner, emphasizes the crucial transition from Drupal 7 to Drupal 10, underscoring the importance of staying technologically current with their latest article, "On a 1-10, How Important is Your Drupal Website?" As of November 15, 2023, a substantial 47.5% of Drupal websites remain on Drupal 7, prompting Promet Source to address the impending challenges of Drupal 7's end-of-life status, set for January 5, 2025. The article stresses the growing disparity between the capabilities of Drupal 7 and the advancements incorporated into Drupal 10, positioning the latter as a superior, performance-optimized, and feature-rich web platform.

Highlighting the Drupal community's puzzlement at the prevalence of Drupal 7, the article by Danita Bowman navigates through the historical context of Drupal 7's release in 2011, drawing parallels with the technology landscape of that time. The post outlines the decline in community support for Drupal 7, showcasing the Drupal Association's decision to limit public issue queue postings for Drupal 7 security concerns. Despite the challenges associated with migration, Promet Source advocates for the shift, citing Drupal 10's advantages, including improved performance, mobile responsiveness, enhanced content editing, accessibility, and a developer-friendly architecture. With a keen focus on educating stakeholders about Drupal 10's potential, the article urges organizations to prioritize the migration process for sustained web excellence.
